How to Collect Each Evidence in Demonology

Each ghost type in Demonology leaves behind **three distinct traces**. By **examining these traces** with the **appropriate equipment**, you can "secure" the evidence needed to identify the ghost. There are seven types of evidence in total, and here's how to collect each:

  • Laser Projector: Place and activate a Laser Projector on the ground. Ghosts will appear as a faint silhouette when they pass by.
  • Handprints: Use a Blacklight to search for fingerprints, handprints, or footprints left by the ghost.
  • Spirit Box: Engage the Spirit Box to communicate with the ghost. Be persistent, as they may not respond immediately; try different dialogue options.
  • EMF Level 5: Use an EMF Reader to detect ghostly activity. While all ghosts can affect the reader, only certain types will cause all the lamps to light up.
  • Ghost Orb: Utilize a Video Camera to capture the ghost in the form of a small white orb.
  • Freezing Temps: Employ a thermometer to monitor the temperature. A significant drop or readings below zero indicate ghost activity.
  • Ghost Writing: Position a Spirit Book in a potentially haunted room. After some time, the ghost may interact with it, leaving behind written messages.

With these tools and techniques at your disposal, you are well-equipped to identify and understand the ghosts in Demonology. For more insights and guides on Roblox games, be sure to visit the **Roblox guides hub** on Escapist.
